Are the grid lines of your target an inch apart? I'm looking at one on these rifles now but I'm a little turned off by what Ruger has done to the muzzle to allow for the suppressor. I'm trying to figure out if I can learn to live with the change they made, or if I should be looking for one of the older ones.
Yeah.. they're one inch grids! I also don't like the threaded barrel.. however.. I can live with it 😉 I always wanted one.. so when they hit the shelves this year at the local gun shop.. I picked it up!
Definitely is fun to shoot :) I had to do a little bit of work on it.. but nothing to hard. First thing.. free float the barrel! Dremel tool and wooden dowel with sandpaper did the trick. Then I order a trigger spring and bolt shims.. definitely made it shoot better. Trigger is lighter.. but gritty! Anyways.. thank you brother.. I appreciate you stopping by :)
@@cw2a you should try the bolt shims.. I noticed that by adding 2/1000th in shims.. the groups were cut in half! I did my changes in steps.. 1st trip.. factory stock 2nd trip.. free floated the barrel and added a new spring ( came with the bolt shims ) 3rd trip.. I added the shims to the bolt The groups shrunk each time.. and actually grouped.. instead of a flyer in every group of three
Not bad!!
Thanks brother

@@blackie1of4 I changed the trigger in in one of mine. (77/22m) Made big difference. Just wish it was more accurate.
